"They're so cute...I ship it.", Seungcheol said.

He was watching Jungwon and Minjae talking to each other and smiling.

"They are. Speaking of which...how long have you and Jeonghan been together?", Keeho asked.

Seungcheol sat down by Keeho and Yechan.

"A few years. I miss him so much right now..."

"Awww, well don't worry. Once we defeat this robot, we may not even have to do night six. Maybe we can go home early."

Seungcheol smiled, thinking about the look Jeonghan would have if he came home earlier than expected.

"That would be a best case scenario."

Soobin was standing by a window. Despite not being able to see what was outside, he was still facing that way with a soft smile.

"You alright?", Sangyeon asked.

"Yep.", Soobin responded, "Just hoping tonight goes well so we can go home early."

"Me too. I can't wait to see my boys again. I miss them."

Soobin's expression changed.

"Oh, did I say something wrong?", Sangyeon asked.

"I won't be able to look at them. How can I be so happy to go back if I won't be of any use to them."

"Soobin, you'll always be useful to them. You're their leader! Not to mention you make them smile, you give them support when they need it, and if no one else is there for them, you are."

Soobin pouted.

"And despite everything you've gone through, you still came up with the idea that could get us out of here early. Don't shortcut yourself."

The leaders spent a good part of the day discussing their strategy for tonight.

Seungcheol had been informed of what the figure "told" Jungwon.

He was prepared to fight however he could. So was another person though, and Keeho was not a fan of the enthusiasm.

"I'll kick the robot in his knees.", Yechan said.

"You're not kicking shit, because you're not going with us.", Keeho replied.

"Why not?"

"Why not? Yechan, you're not even supposed to be here right now. You're in very great danger if you go out there."

"But the robot doesn't even know who I am, and I'm not someone it's programmed to go after like you guys talked about!"

"That doesn't mean you won't get hurt! The robot isn't programmed to kill me but I still got injured. The robot isn't programmed to kill Soobin, but he lost his vision because of his injury!"

Yechan stood up.

"I will go with you. I came here to find you and I'll be damned if I sit here like a waiting duck while you go out there again!"

"You. Are. Not. Going. And that's final. I wouldn't be able to continue on in life if something happened to you..."

Yechan sighed.

"You're my little brother, Yechan. I can't let you get hurt. Or worse. We've already lost people in there. I'm not going to watch someone else die."

Yechan nodded.

"Okay. I won't go."

He sat back down.

Jungwon and Minjae had of course been listening.

"I wish we could team up.", Minjae said.

"Me too. But just one more night and we potentially don't have to do this anymore."

"Yeah...one more night."

A phone started ringing. The same phone that Hongjoong called from.

Soobin felt his way over and answered it.

"Hello?"

"SOOBINNN! HI!"

"Ah, Yeonjun. I'm guessing the Developer sent you guys a letter too."

"Yep. Said we had one call to this number. I assumed it was to you guys."

"Well it is. I missed your voice so much..."

"I missed you too. How are you? I can't wait to see you in a few days."

Soobin smiled.

"I'm doing alright. But...I should tell you something."

"Yeah?"

"I got hurt a few days ago. And...it caused a bad side effect."

"Like?"

"I can't see."

"What."

"I suffered a head injury and I lose my vision."

"Oh my god! Soobin, baby I'm so sorry...I wish I could be there to help you."

"The others have been helping me. But...I feel like a bit of a burden."

"Hey, no. No. We are not doing this again."

"Doing what?"

"Choi Soobin you know what I'm talking about."

Soobin just stayed silent.

"Please stay strong for me. When you get home, I'll give you all the kisses and hugs. I'll take care of you. Now you have something to look forward to."

"Yeah."

"Can I speak to whoever is next to you?"

"Okay."

Soobin held the phone out.

"Whoever is right there, Yeonjun wants to talk to you."

Sangyeon took the phone.

"Hello."

"Hi. I'm Yeonjun."

"I'm Sangyeon."

"Ah, the leader of The Boyz."

"Yep."

"Well Mr. Sangyeon, I have a very special request."

"Alright."

"Can you, or anyone really, just make sure Soobin doesn't do anything stupid?"

"What do you mean?"

"He's been at this spot before. Not due to the same situation of course, but he's gotten this...sad, before. Our maknae had to stop him from doing something really bad."

"Oh...I get it."

"So, please take care of him. He gets down easily and it's hard to make him feel better."

"Got it."

As the hours rolled by, the leaders got ready for what they wanted to make their final night of this ordeal.

Soon, it was time to go into maze five.

Yechan didn't want to let go of his brother, and was squeezing his arm tightly.

"Yechan, I'll be fine.", Keeho said.

"Don't go...please."

"I'll be okay, come on. You're gonna make me cry."

Yechan just held him tighter, his own eyes getting teary.

"Please...", he whispered.

Keeho had to blink away the emotions threatening to come out, and ruffled his brothers hair.

"Yechan, you keep watch here. Tonight, I will come back and I won't leave your side again. That is until you go back to work."

Yechan nodded his head and reluctantly let go of Keeho.

Soobin was "centering" himself and holding the circle strip that would be used against the robot.

Seungcheol stood next to him.

"Ready?"

"Yep. I'm ready. Don't worry hyung, i would kill as many mechanical monsters as it takes to save you."

Seungcheol laughs.

"I feel greatly protected."

"Okay hotties! Let's make night five the last night!", Serim yelled.

Everyone cheered.

They all began walking off towards their maze.

Yechan watched his brother walk away.

As much as he wanted to listen to Keeho, he couldn't let himself sit still. He was going to go in there and help his brother.

Even if it cost him everything.
